This was continued until further advanced training was commenced overseas in July 2007 with a Fellowship in Transplantation Surgery at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. This high volume world renowned centre enabled further training in complex hepatobiliary surgery, living donor liver transplantation, and other aspects of transplantation surgery.
